fill scales + lineweights

Anonymous — Tue, 22 Feb 2005 17:37:27 GMT

1. Does anyone know how to chnage fill scales, over an entire model?

2. I have a problem where when I amend lineweights for specific objects in ArchiCAD, and then when I save drawings as plotmaker files, these lineweights revert back to their defaults. Does anyone know how to solve this problem.

AC Version?

1. not sure
2. check plotmaker to verify that uniform pens and colors is not selected. If it is Plotmaker is overriding the pen settings from Archicad. (This is actually the preferable way to do it as you have control from the final authority on 2D output -- Plotmaker)

I was going to answer:

1. Yes
2. Yes

But thought better of it. We need a better explanation of the problem. Fills can be scaled and lineweight issues have been discussed many times lately. I'd recommend developing a more comprehensive question and/or doing a search.
